What if we told you that some of the hardest workers at Jack London State Historic Park have feathers, fur, or six legs?
This Labor Day, join a naturalist-led exploration of the remarkable work happening throughout the landscape at Jack London State Historic Park.
From nature’s architects and engineers to recyclers, pollinators, and cleanup crews, wildlife is constantly working behind the scenes to keep the ecosystem thriving. Along the way, we’ll also explore the important work people do to care for this special place.
There is an extraordinary amount of activity happening in nature, much of it just beyond our notice. This family-friendly program invites participants to slow down, look more closely, and discover the many ways wildlife and people contribute to a healthy landscape.
The program includes a guided walk along the historic trails surrounding Jack London’s ranch and continuing to the Wolf House, covering approximately 3 miles round trip. The route includes elevation changes and uneven terrain. Participants should come prepared with plenty of water, sturdy walking shoes, and sun protection.
Celebrate Labor Day by stepping into the landscape and discovering the remarkable work taking place all around us.
